Abstract This volume examines the reception and circulation of Calvino’s Invisible Cities, a book of travels, exchange and (reimagining) urban space, in different countries and continents. This is the first in-depth analysis of the circulation of the book in a comparative context, showing how political, cultural and temporal differences have impacted the way in which Marco Polo and Kublai Khan’s dialogues have travelled.
